Сердечная недостаточность с сохранившейся фракцией выброса: синергия между кардиологическими и экстракардиальными механизмами и эффекты новых методов лечения.

Сердечная недостаточность с консервированной фракцией выброса (HFFEF) является системным заболеванием, в котором метаболические коморбиды ожирение, тип 2 диабет (T2D) и хронические заболевания почек (CKD) сходятся, вызывая системное воспаление, эндотелиальную дисфункцию и миокардный фиброз. Микроваскулярная дисфункция представляет собой важную связь между этими коморбидами и аномалиями внутри и за пределами сердца, хотя ее причинно-следственная связь с ГФФФ по-прежнему не до конца установлена. Помимо поощрения миокардной жесткости и диастотической дисфункции, поврежденная микроваскулярная функ

Targeting mast cells tryptase in tumor microenvironment: a potential antiangiogenetic strategy.

Angiogenesis is a complex process finely regulated by the balance between angiogenesis stimulators and inhibitors. As a result of proangiogenic factors overexpression, it plays a crucial role in cancer development. Although initially mast cells (MCs) role has been defined in hypersensitivity reactions and in immunity, it has been discovered that MCs have a crucial interplay on the regulatory function between inflammatory and tumor cells through the release of classical proangiogenic factors (e.g., vascular endothelial growth factor) and nonclassical proangiogenic mediators granule-associated (

Expert opinion on screening, diagnosis and management of diabetic peripheral neuropathy: a multidisciplinary approach.

The proposed expert opinion aimed to address the current knowledge on conceptual, clinical, and therapeutic aspects of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and to provide a guidance document to assist clinicians for the best practice in DPN care. The participating experts consider the suspicion of the disease by clinicians as a key factor in early recognition and diagnosis, emphasizing an improved awareness of the disease by the first-admission or referring physicians. The proposed "screening and diagnostic" algorithm involves the consideration of DPN in a patient with prediabetes or diabetes

Complete Blood Count Parameters and Bone Health: Clinical and Experimental Evidence.

Osteoporotic fractures pose a significant burden in aging populations, yet current assessment strategies may overlook systemic factors influencing bone health. Emerging evidence suggests that complete blood count (CBC) parameters, including red blood cell indices, white blood cell (WBC) counts and subtypes, and platelet counts, are associated with skeletal fragility and fracture risk. Anemia has been consistently linked to reduced bone mineral density and increased fracture susceptibility, potentially due to impaired oxygen delivery and osteoblast dysfunction. Elevated red cell distribution wi

Skeletal consequences of heart failure.

Heart failure (HF) is a prevalent clinical syndrome that causes significant physical limitations. Osteoporosis is also an important cause of loss of functionality, and it mainly affects women. There are several reports linking HF and osteoporosis, and both share risk factors. Most of the data available so far point to bone fragility as a consequence of HF, and several mechanisms have been identified to explain this relationship. Among the proposed pathophysiological mechanisms are the hyperactivation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and the increase in parathyroid hormone, functiona

Implications of Angiogenesis Involvement in Arthritis.

Angiogenesis, the growth of new blood vessels, is essential in the pathogenesis of joint inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA), facilitating the invasion of inflammatory cells and increase in local pain receptors that contribute to structural damage and pain. The angiogenic process is perpetuated by various mediators such as growth factors, primarily vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), as well as proinflammatory cytokines, various chemokines, matrix components, cell adhesion molecules, proteases, and others.

Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases and Vascular Function: The Concept of Autoimmune Atherosclerosis.

Autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs) with unknown etiology are increasing in incidence and prevalence. Up to 5% of the population is affected. AIRDs include rheumatoid arthritis, system lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, and Sjögren's syndrome. In patients with autoimmune diseases, the immune system attacks structures of its own body, leading to widespread tissue and organ damage, which, in turn, is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. One third of the mortality associated with autoimmune diseases is due to cardiovascular diseases. Atherosclerosis is considered the main un

USP33 Promotes Lung Adenocarcinoma Brain Metastasis by Inhibiting the K48-Linked Ubiquitination and Degradation of S100A9 and Facilitating Vimentin Secretion.

Brain metastasis has a deterministic influence on the evolutionary trajectory of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Given the profound clinical importance of LUAD brain metastases and the formidable obstacles that hinder their precise prediction, novel therapeutic targets are urgently needed. Notably, a substantial fraction of lung carcinoma cells in brain metastatic foci demonstrates marked S100A9 overexpression. However, whether these cells represent the primary drivers of brain metastasis requires further elucidation. Coculture of S100A9-overexpressing LUAD cells with human brain microvascular end

Cancer Therapy and Exercise Intolerance: The Heart Is But a Part: JACC: CardioOncology State-of-the-Art Review.

The landscape of cancer therapeutics is continually evolving, with successes in improved survivorship and reduced disease progression for many patients with cancer. Improved cancer outcomes expose competing comorbidities, some of which may be exacerbated by cancer therapies. The leading cause of disability and death for many early-stage cancers is cardiovascular disease (CVD), which is often attributed to direct or indirect cardiac injury from cancer therapy. In this review, the authors propose that toxicities related to conventional and novel cancer therapeutics should be considered beyond th
